Slowing Aging
=============
- Avoid DNA damage (wear sunscreen)
- Eat less - caloric restriction
- Eat less protein
- Do exercise (HIIT)
- Be cold
- Be hot
... these trigger longevity genes to trick body into preserving genome
Reversing aging
===============
Theory
------
- Shinya Yamanaka discovered 4 factors that reset epigenome of cell back to pluriportent stem cell
- Myc, Oct3/4, Sox2 and Klf4
- dont do it all, would turn into tumor
- suggests there are ways to revert cells and reverse ageing
- David Sinclar's lab reversed aging in old mice so they could see like they were young again
- used 3/4 of the reprogramming factors, not Myc as causes cancer
- can turn system on and off to limit reversal

Notes:
Calorie restriction, mostly vegetarian diet, avoid sugar and carbs.
On weekends, he exercises at the gym and then sits in a hot sauna before plunging himself into an ice-cold pool, as well as tracks his biomarkers regularly.
Takes vitamin D, vitamin K2, and aspirin.
Takes each morning: resveratrol, NMN, and metformin

OpenVPN
=======
Setup:
$ sudo su root
- follow steps here:
- https://wiki.debian.org/OpenVPN#TLS-enabled_VPN
- skip editing vars
- add random data to /etc/openvpn/easy-rsa/pki/.rnd to get rid of error messages
- use the # ./easyrsa [command] methods
- encrypt CA with password
- build the optional intermediate CA
- https://wiki.debian.org/OpenVPN#Static-Key_VPN
- improves security
- set auth SHA256
- save config file to /etc/openvpn/server.conf
- * set root's shell back to /bin/false *
Static IP:
- create a client (ie. "mediaserver") with easyrsa
$ mkdir /etc/openvpn/ccd
- edit /etc/openvpn/ccd/mediaserver:
ifconfig-push 10.8.0.100 255.255.255.0
- edit /etc/openvpn/server.conf:
client-config-dir /etc/openvpn/ccd
Routing / port forward:
- edit /etc/sysctl.conf:
net.ipv4.ip_forward=1
- edit /etc/default/ufw:
DEFAULT_FORWARD_POLICY="ACCEPT"
- edit /etc/ufw/before.rules at the top:
*nat

$ sudo ufw disable && sudo ufw enable

- source: https://gist.github.com/kimus/9315140
Systemd fix:
- ensure config file is at /etc/openvpn/server.conf
$ sudo systemctl start openvpn@server
$ sudo systemctl enable openvpn@client
$ sudo systemctl daemon-reload
$ sudo service openvpn restart
- verify stop / start with ps aux | grep openvpn
- do same for "client"
- source: https://ubuntu.com/server/docs/service-openvpn
Systemd client:
$ sudo mv vpn2-client.ovpn /etc/openvpn/client.conf
$ sudo chown root:root /etc/openvpn/client.conf
$ sudo chmod 600 /etc/openvpn/client.conf
- if there's a password:
$ sudo -E vim /etc/openvpn/auth.txt
$ sudo chmod 600 /etc/openvpn/auth.txt
- add password to file
- add "askpass /etc/openvpn/auth.txt" to config file
- set up systemd:
$ sudo systemctl start openvpn@client
$ sudo systemctl enable openvpn@client
$ sudo systemctl daemon-reload
$ sudo service openvpn restart
Disable routing traffic over VPN:
- remove all "redirect-gateway" lines in client config
Gnome client:
- vpn settings, add
- import from file, select vpn2-client.ovpn
- add missing private key from /home/tanner/.cert/nm-openvpn/
- add password gush-tilt-shine-chute-pace-gecko

Notes from Andy
---------------
Mastering your mind:
- can you control yourself?
- can you sit still physically?
- can you control your mind?
- can you concentrate on a simple object and nothing else?
- can you have no thoughts?
- can you free your mind from remembering the past or future?
- can you have no visual images / sounds?
- can you stop your inner monologue?
How to meditate:
- these steps are very gradual, not distinct steps:
- master focusing in the present (1-2 years)
- disregard the past and future
- focus on noises in the present. can jump around or listen to all.
- on failure gently pull back to the present
- mastery when you can do this for an hour
- can start with shorter sessions
- master focusing only a single element in the present
- for example, your breath
- master stopping the monologue
- stop talking to yourself
- stop making comments
- stop the chatter
- master total absorption into that single element
- deeper focus into the element
- Samadhi state
- can only experience your own, dont read the wiki
- Andy reached this only once, he felt omnipotent
- this becomes an intrinsic skill like talking and walking rather than a motor skill like throwing?
- if you dont use it you lose it?
- one you reach Samadhi your mind always meditates

Solutions
=========
Desires
-------
- Open source
- End to end encryption
- Portable data store - md (or exportable)
- Images
- Rich text editor WYSIWYG
- Linking notes together
- to whole note or header in note
- Sync
- Mobile support
- Folders
- Undo / versioning
Reviews
-------
Joplin:
- UI is very fast
- has its own sync server now, wait to mature?
- scroll in render view glitchy / laggy when zoomed
- WYSIWYG editor breaks some markdown
- clicking links in WYSIWYG requires ctrl
- can't see note names in notebook tree, so will be hard to find
- maybe that's better?
- mobile app lacks WYSIWYG
- mobile app md editor scroll shitty
- slow to edit notes in mobile app
- white flashes on dark mode desktop theme when switching notebooks
- Todo feature is cool. can make each note a todo and use the body to add context / info
- easy to rearrange todos
Obsidian:
- highly reviewed, looks sexy but needs more contrast
- no WYSIWYG editor yet - planned
- has graph and backlinks
- not open source
- files stored as plain text
Wiki.js:
- Supports LaTeX
- Support Markdown (it also supports formats such as html)
- Works in-browser (and therefore can be accessed on any device)
- Editing is easy (although this sounds like a "duh" feature, many self-hosted note apps are more like static site generators)
- Uploading files is simple
- Has multiple backup options (I use GitHub and .gitignore the textbooks)
Boostnote:
- no mobile support
Trilium:
- great encryption
- poor mobile support, Dom uses telegram as a buffer
- fully tried it, mobile is just too broken
- doesnt scroll all the way to the bottom of folders and note contents
- lots of other minor bugs
- parts of UI not updating like archived notes
- randomly refreshes the page
- header sizes all look the same
- today note button is slow to load
Simplenote:
- not self-hosted
- no folders
Turtl:
- buggy app
- bad organization system
Org-mode
- needs emacs
Taskwarrior:
- command line only
Zim:
- no built in sync
- no mobile
TiddlyWiki

- goes over the three types of note-takers
- librarian: likes to catalogue, usually write-only -> evernote

Formatting / Template
=====================
Unformatted info can just be sentences, paragraphs, or points.
Section
=======
Place two empty lines before the section header, empty line after
Subsection
-----------
Sub-subsection:
No linebreak for text within a section
Generic lists or steps:
- dash then a space
- lower case for prose
- Data points: gets capital
- like this
- sublists
- two spaces, dash, space
Todo lists:
o unfinished task
v finished task (looks like check mark)
x cancelled task
- I wonder if I should just use markdown?

Timezones
=========
NEVER USE .replace(tzinfo= EXCEPT FOR WITH UTC!
Assigning timezone to parsed string:
- example, you get a text timestamp and parse it with strptime
- solution:
t = datetime.strptime(timestamp, '%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S')
tz = pytz.timezone('America/Edmonton')
result = tz.localize(t)
